> Pakistan, Turkey and Saudi Arabia have concluded a mutual defence agreement. Under the arrangement, an armed assault against any one of the three countries will be treated as an attack on all three. The deal comes as Saudi Arabia works to broaden its security partnerships after repeated attacks on critical infrastructure during the war in Iran. France 24 correspondent Jasper Mortimer reports from Turkey with further insight into the pact.
